The BSPA MC making it up as we go along is half the reason why nobody takes this sport seriously and why it’s in the mess it currently finds itself. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlislecomet2 Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 I know we struggled to obtain guests today but I would love to hear from one of our statisticians out there who could let us know just how sh*** Doolan always is when guesting for us. Did we do something bad to him in a previous life? Worrall is another that springs to mind, but Doolan is in a league of his own. Full marks to Aaron Summers who has been excellent for us recently. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would be very interesting to see guest averages, particularly if it also compared them with their average when visiting with their 'own team'.

Gazc Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 (edited) Fine night for Aaron i am sure his strong finish to the season wont have gone unnoticed and a return to his parent club next year cant be ruled out. Will be on a more attractive average than Vissing it would be a no brainer. Edited September 16, 2018 by Gazc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be one up for Worky not to mention your injury to Dan what i think is, remarkably you have achieved this with young Kyle at 7 all season, seen him win the Stars meeting at Berwick last night sure he will be a very decent rider with more experience one for the future good luck in the playoffs. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post StevePark Posted September 16, 2018 Author Popular Post Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 (edited) Just like to say Good Luck to Stuart Robson after he announced tonight that this season would be his last. Been a great servant to Newcastle and also British Speedway in general. Also well done Archie Freeman in winning the 150cc Youth Championship with four qualifying wins and a win in the Grand Final.

SteelShoe Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 (edited) Robbo is a fine and fair speedway rider who has had more than his fair share of injuries. Just like to wish him all the very best in whatever he decides to do. A rare off night for Rasser tonight compounded by a poor show from guest Kevin Doolan precluded us getting anything from the meeting. Super show from guest Aaron Summers who had good support from Rene who was reportedly suffering from the illness that affected Rasser Saturday and also Mason who stuck at it following a sketchy first heat when he done a 360 on turn 3/4.

If Stuy Robson is set to retire I would like to personally thank him for 25 years service to the sport, always a favourite of mine since I was 16 years old. However I am not suppressed to hear this sad news it has to be said and after me sitting this entire season out with the exception of both away meetings at Redcar, I don't see me returning to the speedway full time anymore either so that's the two of us calling it a day as Stuy is the only rider together with Willko that float my boat these days the only riders to get my passion to shout for!! Good luck Stuy on whatever you do in the future and Carl for next season wherever you are ridingl!!

FAST GATER Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 Robbo great rider and team man but I do think it is the right time to go not quite riding he once was all the best for the future 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DSC67 Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 I've followed Robbos career since he was doing second halves at Berrington Lough , him and others like him are the bread & butter of speedway , good luck to him in whatever he does in the future Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylorj Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 Just chuffed we left with all riders in one piece ...that track doesn’t get any better , bend 4 is treacherous. You see the tractors more than you see Speedway riders Best of luck to Robbo for his future , seems a really nice guy and always fair on track ..ah well there’s one good thing about Brough Park .. the way Out !! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mauger65 Posted September 16, 2018 Report Share Posted September 16, 2018 yawn ….. same old tedious comments about track anyway …. not a bad meeting which clearly had an end of season feel to it and the comets (those who turned up) clearly trying to avoid injury for their very busy hectic post season (lucky sods) well done guys …. 8th ………… I certainly had us in bottom 3 at start with redcar and Berwick (hats off to them for 5th) good luck Workington ….. probably the most open playoffs ever ………… lakeside moving to rye could scupper them …. other 3 look capable of beating each other as for 2018 ….. some good meetings …. but overall good riddance ………. season far too disjointed …. it was a year of survival … we did …. roll on 2019 with optimism all the best robbo ….. great servant to speedway …. and pleased you got out whilst being competitive and fit and very well done archie … 125cc champion …… next stop .. the 250s 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinny Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 Robson has been a fantastic rider , one of the legends of the sport. Always remember his guest performances at Newport filling in for Wato. He was a master aroun Queensway Meadows. glad he will retire in one piece after some horrible injuries. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted September 17, 2018 Report Share Posted September 17, 2018 Always enjoyed watching Robbo race - quite possibly my favourite non Witch Guts determination and no little skill too No doubt that a speedway with 'more Robbos' would be in a better place Good luck to him for the future 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
